FRANCE EXCITED.

Army Bill
SfIRS UP The FRENCH CAPITAL.

ANOTHER VERY FRENCH SENSATION.

PARIS, January l5.-The different
speeches delivered by Prince Bismarck in
the Reichstag, and which have been fol-
lowed by the rejection Of the Army bill,
have caused great excitement in Paris.
All the papers, without exception, approve
Of Prince Bismarck's frankness. They
discuss the arguments he made, and con-
slider that they give reassurance Of gen
eral peace in Europe. In the highest po-
litical circles this reasunscs j, ,alp ssasr.
6sined.
The National thinks that the danger
which Prince Bismarck pointed out Of q
war being used eventually by French
Minister rs diversion from home affairs,
IL real danger. AS long" il adds, "as
the Chamber Of Deputies persists in over
turning Ministers who have some feeling
for the dignity of the country, so long will
it be possible for ambitious men who seek
to develop their popularity in the sacred
tlag of the rayanche TO get into power"
The Liberte does not fear such result;
1t declares that the strength of those inter
ests which demand peace is 80 great that,
except when il is necessary to defend the
territory of the country, public sentiment
will be opposed Ia any struggle, and
would break out intoa storm against those
who wished TO drag us into an aggressive
war"
The Temps says that Prince Bismarck
supposes, and not without apparent reason,
that
FRANCE WOULD NOT HAGGLE
over rewarding the man who restored 70
her her lost frontiers, and that ~ long ~
she continues 10 brood over repairing her
defeat she will consider nothing has been
done. THE justice of this argument"
continues the Temps ''is contcstablc
from foreigners point Of view; hut
We Frenchmcn see IL otherwise. The scant
argument of Prince bismarck namely,
that the Republic could seek in war y
means of escaping trouble nj home is
true, logical and fair. But in reality the
French Radicals have horror of war, and
they have good reason Ia bc ~, for the
sword has never been merciful to them.
France IN really peace loving, both by her
instincts and by her military institutions.

In conclusion, the Temps says IL appreciates

4 Young Man Forgets TO Pay His Board
Bill and Gets Into Trouble.

A Young Man Forgets to Pay His Board
Bill and Gets Into Trouble.
Quite n ripple of excitement was caused
on the L. & o. Washington, Pa, accom-
mediation last evening as it was crossing
Main street from the depot. At that
point Officers Lukens and Watson jumped
on the train and the former ordered the
engineer to stop, which was done. A
tall individual entered the passenger
coach with the officer and pointing out n
pale compleXiOned, taffy-haired young man
who was nursing valiSc, said: That's
him; he drawed my money and skipped. i"
Then almost before the meek look
ing young man knew 1t he and
his valise were on the way to the City
Building, and q big crowd collected and
followed in the rear, striving to see what
they supposed to be bold, bad pickpocket,
while all the time he of the pale complex
ion and valise looked scared half to death
and his eyes almost popped from their
sockets. When the building was reached
an attempt was made to ascertain the
cause of the arrest and from what could be
learned il seems that II. J. Liller, the tall
man, and Moses Taylor, the prisoner had
worked in the Wheeling Creek Coal Mines
together, and Moses boarded with L'ileI
and owed him about a months board,
and S., which he neglected to pay
when be started on his
interrupted journey. After good deal of
very funny argument between the two,
the matter was finally settled by Moses
having Liller the amount due him, out OF
which the latter gave Officer Lukens a
dollar bill for his trouble, and Justice
Davis. who was called, a like amount, for
settling the matter. Then Liller left hap
DIV, and Taylor went down to the depot
to make another attempt to reach Elm
Grove. But he wasn't exactly too happy.

publication is only matter Of day or
two. The story Is given 40 much creii-

Answers have been received from
forty-two towns. These are published,
giving the number OF women who
registered, the number who voted, and
the apparent effect The editors Of
the Ecaageiist say:
1.-The impression made on our minds
is that the testimony. on the whole,

which gave to women the right to ex-

the reports show that the women ex-
hibited considerable wisdom and tact
Nearly all were enthusiastic. and some
were successful"
The editors add that they "believe
in equal rights for women. and that
the future will show that they exercise
the privilege with as much conscicn-
tiousness and wisdom. and with more
beneficial results on the community,
than has been displayed or secured by
